There was no controlling how angry I felt, I've never felt such anger since I first started dating Octavia. It was like all of my once anger that was resolved came rushing to the surface. All because, of Jake. And I'll admit I did take it out on Octavia but, she wasn't getting it or understanding how I felt. I know in my mind it wasn't the right thing to just walk away from her but, I did.

I was just so angry, she's mine. I'm the only one who gets to look at her like that. I'm the only one who gets to admire her beauty. Jake doesn't get to do that not when he has Maya for christ sake. And on top of that he has a son by her, Axel. So why is he trying to ruin that by looking at my wife; mine, with those eyes.

"Hey, is this seat taken?" I looked to my right to see, Beverly, a girl who's just joined the gang.

She was a hacker that we'd let in just for that purpose, to have more on the job. Plus she didn't have any family around so I kind of felt for her.

I shook my head no and waved my hand to the bartender, motioning for a drink. He got the hint and gave me what he knows I like.

"So, I'm Beverly I don't think I've ever properly met you." she introduced which I already knew because, it's my job.

"Ryder." I stated, she looked around a bit before looking at me.

"You have a wife right, I've been trying to talk to people but, I don't think they like new comers very much." she explained, laughing a bit.

I smiled a bit thinking about the word wife, "Yeah I do, her names Octavia and I have a kid as well her names Lily."

Talking about them makes me want to see them. Only I'm supposed to be mad at Octavia but, I couldn't be. We've never argued and never stayed mad at one another. So, this was all new to me and I didn't like it one bit.

"Awe, sweet I take it she's here right?" she asked looking around.

My curiosity got the better of me and I looked back just in time to see Octavia. She was standing with Elijah and Haisley as well as Mia and Arron. But, she didn't look as if she was paying any attention to them. Her brown eyes were trained on the ground with a blank look. She wore this concentrated look on her face that always meant she was thinking way to hard.

And I already knew about what.

"That's her." I mumbled and turned around to take a shot the bartender handed me.

"Wow, she's really beautiful." Beverly replied and I just smiled without stopping myself.

"Yeah, she is."

I turned around to look at her again but, she was gone from that spot, "She went up those stairs." Beverly added catching onto my confusion.

I sighed and nodded before motioning for another shot, "I- ugh- heard about the package that got sent to you, they said that's the only reason why I'm here." she explained and took a drink of her alcohol.
